Black Magic

 Magic 

It doesn't stop being magic just because you know how it works. - Terry Pratchett

I love magic.

It's not real, but it's fun. When life get serious sometimes, I think magic can bring back a joyful energy to invigorate us.

Thus, in this series, I'd like to feature some of my favorite magic show acts. But not only that. I'd like to ask you if you know or can figure out how the magic is done.

For starters, how about the BLACK MAGIC game? I used to play it as a kid.


As the name suggests, this is a baffling game where the magician is able to guess which object had been pre-selected by the audience.

The game proceeds as the magician's assistant points to different objects in the room, asking, Is this the one? Eventually, as the correct object is pointed to, the magician enigmatically discerns it to be so and says, Yes. 

Of course, he is correct.


Please email (send to me only), if you know how it works. 

The secret is revealed in the next blog.
